Amazing collapsible drying racks
These drying racks are great! I bought them because I have a very small apartment and have a number of delicate dresses that I need to air dry after washing on delicate. These racks are prefect! They are quite sturdy, so I can hang several dresses at a time on each one without worrying that the rack will break. I’m 5’4”, and the racks are tall enough for me to hang full length dresses or pants, without them dragging on the floor. The racks collapse completely, so they’re very easy to store. They are sturdy and easy to put up and take down. They are also very easy to clean. I highly recommend these to anyone who needs to dry clothes in a small space.

Sturdy, handy, easily transformable rack!
I searched the internet extensively looking for the perfect clothes drying rack and this was the nicest one out there I could find with a decent price. I absolutely love this rack! Along with the rack I bought hangers for both shirts and pants so they were designated to the rack alone. There is enough space between each groove that the clothing is able to get air all the way around it. Clothes take a day to a day and a half to dry depending on the type of material, also if you give them a quick shake before hanging them up they dry with very little to no wrinkles at all. I also plan on using this rack to display our T-shirts for our charity event. The rack folds up and breaks down for easy travel and takes up little room for storage. With such a versatile rack that I'm sure I will be finding everyday uses for it especially with winter coming up. This is a very sturdy rack but you do have to be careful while hanging heavier items on it, make sure to evenly displace the weight of the clothes. Its not that it will tip over very easily, I only found this to be a problem if I had to move the rack with clothes on it. The rack was a bit top heavy and one sided so it tipped a little while i slid it across the room. Other than careful placement of clothing I can find no faults with this drying rack, I am very happy I chose this particular rack, with all the uses it has I will probably end up buying another one just to have for extra room.

Great Product
I recently started steaming my shirts at home to save money on dry cleaning. However, I've struggled to find something to hang the shirts on while steaming that was the right height, stable, and allowed me to easily manipulate the shirts while I steamed the front, back, and both sleeves... Not knowing what I was looking for, I started scouring Amazon and randomly stumbled upon the Household Essentials Collapsible Indoor Tripod. Given the positive reviews and reasonable price, I decided to give it a shot... This has proven to be a great solution. It's sturdy, the perfect height, doesn't take up much space, and is the perfect height. The tripod arrives in 2 pieces (2 poles -- 1 with an attached base with collapsible "legs" and the other with collapsible "arms" to hang things on). The 2 poles slide together quite easily in about 2 seconds and there's a small latch that will lock the poles together so that you can move the tripod in one piece--even if there are clothes hanging from the tripod. The "legs" and "arms" both collapse at the touch of a button to save space while storing. I've found that the tripod fits easily in most closets just by collapsing the arms & legs and that I don't even need to disconnect the two poles. One word of caution--Remember to use the latch to lock the poles together before moving the tripod--especially if you have clothes hanging from it. Otherwise you will lift the upper pole right out of its base. The tripod is easy to both move and store. It also seems like it can hold substantial weight, because I used it to air dry about 10 button down shirts and several pairs of khaki pants after steaming... Definitely worth the price!

Really great for drying vs a clothesline, but the materials feel cheap
Super-handy. Large and sturdy enough to accommodate two layers of hanging shirts.The arms are very well designed to accommodate both draping clothes directly on them or hanging, with a a nice hook at the tip of each one as well. The whole things is so light, and the center of gravity such that a good wind catching clothes like a sail can knock it over, but it easily stands up to a moderate breeze. Do the planet a favor by putting your clothes outside when you can, but also do it for yourself - even in the smog-ridden areas I live, the clothes come back inside smelling like - well, nothing, which is glorious when you're used to dryer sheet and hot synthetic fabric smells. The unit itself it too awkward to move through a doorway other than a sliding patio or double door. So I end up folding and unfolding it every time. However, the plastic definitely feels more brittle than I expected. It's showing wear pretty quickly (specifically, I have a small crack in the base, but it does not seem to bear any weight near the crack). If you don't fold it up every day, I expect it will be just fine.

excellent, especially convenient when working with a steamer
I live this product! I only bought it because I also recently bought a steamer, and I hated to constantly take a break between steaming to put a new shirt onto the hanger to steam. With this Tripod, I first hang all my items on the dryer's three hangers (as many as I can, and plenty does fit on) and then steam one after another and just move the freshly steamed one to the back or to the side and continue with the new one. The same works for ironing - I no longer run all over the house to find a space at the back of the chairs or some other place to temporarily hang my freshly ironed shirt before I can bring them all upstairs to the closet. Also, to comment on someone's dissatisfaction with the size of the holes in each of the three hangers - I personally did not find it necessary to bother putting my hangers through any of the holes - it is enough to just hang your item on top of the ridge in one of those crevices. But I do not think the holes are too small - they fit most hangers, if you do need to use them (like, if you are drying the clothes outside and need the extra hold). I am very happy with the product. I also like that I can easily fold it and put it away, so it does not take up too much room.
